ff2016, Day 6

A short day today, allowing for a trip to visit my aged parents in the country to talk about The Future. You know, Fun Stuff.

But I’m starting to realise how much comedy used to fill out those early evening timeslots. There’s barely anything in the 6pm timeslot that is in my Shortlist; same goes for the late-night spots, too.

Torte e Mort: Songs of Cake and Death

Bruce

Anya Anastasia’s latest show is a glorious bit of comic cabaret (which she insists is not burlesque), and Bruce is an amazing bit of puppetry that is both technically wonderful, as well as a brilliant demonstration of what our imaginations are capable of. Both are totally worth seeing.
